Accounting 3 Chapter 18 Section 1
Vocabulary • Corporation- An organization with the legal rights of a person and which may be owned by many persons. • Share of Stock- Each unit of ownership in a corporation. • Capital Stock- Total shares of ownership in a corporation. • Special Journal- A journal used to record only one kind of transaction.
Differences Between Ownerships • The main difference among the accounting records of proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations is in the capital accounts. • Proprietorships and partnerships have a single capital and drawing account for each owner. • Corporations have separate capital accounts for the stock issued and the earnings kept in the business.
Special Journals • A General Journal is used in a corporation. • Four types of special journals are used in corporations: • Purchases (discussed in this section) • Cash Payments • Sales • Cash Receipts
Purchases Journal • This journal is used only to record purchases of merchandise on account. • A purchase on account can be recorded on one line. • There is only one special amount column. • Each entry in this column is both a debit to Purchases and a credit to Accounts Payable. (This is just combining the same two columns from the expanded journal used in Accounting 2.)
Purchases Journal • Instead of a Doc. No. column, a Purch. No. column is used. This is due to purchase invoices as the only source document in this journal. • Instead of an Account Title column, an Account Credited column is used. This is done because you must specify which company the merchandise was purchased from and credit that account in the accounts payable ledger.
